How much does the GI Bill pay?

The amount as well as the method of payment for GI Bill benefits can vary based upon
several factors. Some of these factors include the GI Bill Chapter, number of classes
for the semester, participation in a kicker program, or any outstanding debt. The
base payments are available here. If you participated in a kicker program, you will need to submit the proper documentation
to the VA when you submit your initial application. If not, you will only receive
the base amount until you have submitted the necessary proof. All of these payments
come to the student, not the school. The student must make payments to the school
to cover tuition and fees. THIS OFFICE WILL NOT HOLD YOUR CLASSES FOR YOU. You must
make payments to hold your classes.

***POST 9/11 GI BILL***

The Post 9/11 GI Bill pays out differently than all other chapters. Tuition and fees
will be paid directly to the school. The student will receive a housing allowance
and book stipend, which is based upon eligibility. Once you receive your award letter
stating that you are eligible for the Post 9/11 GI Bill, please bring this letter
to the VA Counselor's office. In order to save your classes from being purged, we
will need this letter. It is important to submit this letter and your Request for
Certification early. If you do not take care of this early, it may cause delays with
processing and payment.
